Happy Friday, everyone! Somehow it’s also the last Friday in September. Here are a few books I always feel like reading in the fall (even if they’re not really about fall).
1. Harriet the Spy by by Louise Fitzhugh
A heroine who lies, carries notebooks, and likes tomato sandwiches?
2. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling
Tore through this on a November afternoon. Remember being shocked at the Quirrell reveal.
3. Searching for Dragons by Patricia Wrede
My favorite in the amazing Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Made me want Morwen’s magic sleeves.
4. Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
Basically a gorgeous, literary YA dystopian novel. Ishiguro, you know what I like.
5. Molly Learns a Lesson (American Girls: Molly #2) by Valerie Tripp
Molly’s kind of a dick in this one, but I liked learning about scrap drives and rationing.
I loved “Harriet the Spy” as a kid. I have the original, first edition on my bookshelf in my bedroom, and so many times, when I glance at it, I think, I should read that again. Why not!
i personally love Never Let Me Go and your review of it.
